I'm in the air two hours and there's a BIP draft and draft implementation.

We are so fucking back.

Very rough previews, before I post to ML (may be delayed, I'm still flying home and v much lacking sleep): BIP draft of script restoration: github.com/rustyrussell/b…

Skeleton integration with Bitcoin Core: github.com/rustyrussell/b…

It, um, compiles.

.bitcoin++ has hands down been the best conference I've ever been to. Pure signal, and people all seem on board to really start seriously looking for a path forward instead of more infighting and bickering.

I have not felt this positive of an energy shift since 2017.

The paper is based on and updates Dhruv and Ryan's joint presentation at Bitcoin Miami 2021:

In our latest paper, Dhruv Bansal, Ryan Gentry, and I identify as a layer 2 argue that what is worth emulating in #bitcoin is not 'the blockchain' but rather the methodology of solving problems as small as possible and allowing decentralization to be market driven.

Ryan Gentry Crafted in secret, signed in blood.

Quality of people at bitcoin++ this year was staggering. The humility, candor and generosity alone was inspiring.

Never since original Scaling Bitcoin conference in September of 2015 have I witnessed such a gathering of the minds.

Different faces this time but the intentions…

A pivotal moment for Bitcoin developer culture seems to have happened. This the most bullish I’ve been in… I don’t know. I am peak bullish.

There is a chance for Bitcoin! It’s not over! We can do this!

Many people are calling this 'The ATX Agreement' 🤘

Great summary! Glad I'm doing the easy part!

(Actually v0.3.0 was last version with full opcodes)
